This Shirley Temple lookalike keeping cozy in front of the cardboard fireplace

Living in a city row home we didn’t have a real fireplace so my dad bought a cardboard one for us to hang stockings.. this pic reminds me of my childhood and how my parents always tried to make us feel like we had it all even when we didn’t #realchristmas#Christmaspic.twitter.com/GDhGrXLdr8
